2020 Firstdraft Auction
Online Fundraiser
Opening 5pm 17.09.20
Closing 8pm 27.09.20
For the first time in its 11-year history, the Firstdraft Auction will be hosted entirely online. Our annual fundraiser is a time to come together (virtually) and celebrate artists supporting artists.
In recognition of the collective hardships we've experienced as a community, Firstdraft has doubled artist commissions to 50%. When you buy an artwork at the Firstdraft Auction, half of the sale will pay artists fees and keep our exhibitions rent-free, while the other half goes directly into the pocket of the artist who donated it. Put simply, 100% of your money goes back to artists.
This year's auction will take place for an extended period of ten days, from Thursday 17 – Sunday 27 September 2020.
